I don't mean to be too discouraging; I think it's a good idea to go ahead and do the best you can, but I think that until copies of the schematics that described the TIA design surface so that somebody can tell us what they really mean, an updated 2600 programmers guide will never be *complete*.
There are too many undocumented tricks that have never been described adequately.
For example, how does horizontal positioning *really* work. At this point, outside of the guy who designed the chip (Joe Decuir), I don't think anybody really knows.
